We really LOVE Valentine’s Day! It’s a day celebrating love and it’s filled with chocolates and flowers —we all could use some extra love, chocolates, and flowers in our lives right now.
In the quiet days of January (it’s like a retail freeze), we have been doing research and getting inspired. It’s a new year, and we have been thinking about what we want to feature at Upper Village Blooms.
We have brought in some old favorites, such as botany + wax reed diffusers and Nectar Republic Apothecary Candles and their very popular Bath Salt Test Tubes. We have added two new formulations of Bath Salts: Peppermint Tea Tree and Grapefruit Lemongrass.
In addition to the Apothecary Candles, we are introducing Nectar Republic’s 1776 Collection. These fragrances are inspired by the gentlemen of the Revolutionary War, and are a soy/beeswax blend and wrapped with a leather cord.
Also new in the shop is Thesis Beauty’s Chocolate Heaven Mask, an organic, vegan mask made without any chemicals —but with pure organic cacao.
Teaposy’s Heart of Love Blooming Tea, a blend of Rose, Lily, and Silver needle white tea, scented with fresh jasmine flower. Each bloom makes 6-8 cups of tea and is delightfully citrusy.
Furthermore, we have selected a new greeting card and stationery company, Brooklyn-based Open Sea Designs. Drawing creative inspiration from Victorian botanicals, esoterica, the animal kingdom, and the occult, they are a perfect fit for Upper Village Blooms. We now carry their Spirit Board Market Pad and Lucky Me Notepad, in addition to their oval Calendar card (not pictured below), we have some lovely Open Sea Valentine’s Day cards.
Stop in to see the new items we carry and pick up a Valentine’s Day giftie for your love.
